Blueberry Sauce

Sometimes I get a little carried away when I buy fruit and we can’t eat it fast enough before it starts to go bad. When the blueberries start to look sad I usually throw them in the freezer so I can turn them into a Blueberry Cheesecake Protein Smoothie or a Healthy Blueberry Pear Smoothie .

Other times I like to turn them into a Homemade Blueberry Sauce so I can use them for Blueberry Pie Overnight Oats!

What You’ll Need

1 cup Blueberries

1/4 cup Water

1 tbsp Cornstarch

1/4 cup Sugar

1 tbsp Lemon Juice

How to Make Homemade Blueberry Sauce

In a sauce pan, combine 1 cup blueberries, 1/4 cup water, 1 tbsp cornstarch, and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir to combine.

Continue stirring over medium heat until sauce starts to form. Reduce the heat to low and keep stirring frequently for a minute or two until a thick sauce forms.

Remove from heat and stir in 1 tbsp lemon juice.
